They were great in every way! My father experienced several episodes where additional care was needed and the entire staff stepped up to assist. The Executive Director, [name removed], was empathetic to our family's situation and worked with us to assist my dad with his challenges. [name removed], my first contact, is lovely and very professional. She's such a sweet lady. The entire staff consistently demonstrated compassion and commitment to my dad's well being and care. It's the best place for your loved one. They are cared for, safe and very well treated.

Best Choice I Could Have Made

The staff at Brookdale are warm, patient and accommodating. My Dad has been well cared for. The place smells great and is super clean every time I visit. The meals that I have enjoyed there with my Dad were really good, I love Brookdale East Tucson because it’s a small community with a consistent staff of caregivers who really get to know and love all of the residents. I toured several places before choosing Brookdale and honestly there was no competition. Im so thankful to everyone there!

Brookdale East is always welcoming

Brookdale East is the best part of my day. Employees are always welcoming. They open the door with a smile. The residents are well taken care of and Brookdale never smells like some assisted livings.

Grateful and Pleased!

The staff is very friendly to family and guests and greets all residents by first name when passing in the halls. Staff is quick to notice if a resident needs assistance and stays with the resident until issue is resolved or more help arrives. We are pleased with housekeeping in the room and facility. Communication with the family has been very good: questions answered quickly by text, email, phone , requests honored promptly. The meals are good quality, variety, pleasing to the eye and taste. Also good options in case a meal served is just not to resident's liking. We really are very happy so far and so is mom. I would absolutely recommend Brookdale East Tucson to family and friends, without reservation!

Good fit for our family

It's a very good fit for our family. My loved one is really happy there, and really appreciated being introduced to the other residents. It's a smaller community, wihich offers a freindly service. Everyones needs is different, so I encourage other families, to take a look at the amenities, and room layout. Overall, it has been a positive experience.

My Brookdale East Tucson (Brookdale)

We were able to have an in person tour and our impression was that it was not terrific. They seemed more like they were geared more towards assisted living, and not independent living. Our loved one is very capable of doing things on their own and it seemed a little like a prison. Also low remarks when it comes to the grounds of the community.

Review of Brookdale East Tucson

My favorite thing is having my dog here with me in my apartment. I like the food very much. I like the nurse, if I have a question or something, they answer my quickly. The caregivers are helpful. I really get excited to see my son's visit and when entertainers come and play music.

Always people to help

I enjoy having people to eat with each day in the dining room. We stay healthy exercising and eating all the good food. It’s nice that there are always people around to help us all day. We do activities so there is always something to do.

STability - the staff have been here for years

I watch the caregivers pay such close attention to the residents. They play games, go on outings and serve them all their meals. They make sure and help introduce everyone if they get a new resident. It is a great place

Happy Here

My husband is here in this community and it is great. It's really clean and treating him really well. It has a good quality of food and it's well prepared. He has his own room and it's spacious with his own bathroom. He enjoys the daily activities and the daily exercising is good. He is happy here and I would recommend this community.
